Great Time!
The staff is what makes this place great! They were so welcoming, accommodating, friendly and just great overall. The location was amazing, the closest Bahia resort to the beach. My only downside was the alcoholic drinks. They were a super sweet and not strong. Beer was watered down as well. Disappointed that they didn’t have fresh orange juice, it tasted more like Tang lol but they did have a variety of other fresh juices available. My family of 14 had a great time. We would definitely come again!

The property was huge. Half the time the television did not work. The map was via a code and did not help at all. The Transporation staff were the worse. They would either point in some vague direction or drive right past you.

This place is not newly renovated at all. We found the food handling unsanitary as no one wore gloves. The dining room in the buffet was always dirty. Tables not wiped down between seatings. Some staff were very cranky. Best service was from the beach bar. Thank you Luisa and Kathryn!
